Breast Cancer and Stroke?

sandra4611

Have you had a stroke either before or after your breast cancer diagnosed? 2013 was a bad year. I had a moderate brain stem stroke in the Pons area of my brain stem in January, about a month later was diagnosed with an aneurysm in the ascending aorta of my heart (that's for another thread), and four months later breast cancer was found. Three life threatening diseases in six months!

How has your stroke affected your life? I had six months of rehab and still have some balance and eye issues. The biggest problem is with anesthesia for the breast cancer related surgeries I've had. (4 with #5 coming next month.)The anesthesiologists are always concerned that I could have another stroke.
